Chapter 133: The tug-of-war of propaganda against the wind!
No matter what the outside world says, after a month, Chuxin once again issued a notice.
This time the video is even more outrageous than the last one.
Last time, at least I told the players that this game is called "Big Sushi", oh, which is also known as Dark Souls.
This time, it was directly a black background picture, and a raging flame suddenly ignited.
And then...... It's gone.
Er Xiao, who received the news, and the more than 100,000 players squatting in the live broadcast room were stunned.
"A fire? What the hell? The brothers have taken off their pants, and you show us this? โ
"Good news! Dark Souls has a new trailer! The bad news is a fire. โ
"A fire? What's that? โ
"It's literally a fire."
Everyone was a little disappointed, and their expectations for the game were even stronger.
The last time he went out of Wanda, where did Mr. Luo engage in such a battle?
It started to be promoted when the game was first established.,Until now, the second trailer.,Still nothing useful has been released.ใ
What does this mean? Mr. Luo is very confident in this game!
The big guy still believes in Luo Bai's works very much.
But what is different from the original fan group is the media and sunspots from all walks of life.
"What is Chuxin's mind thinking? Wanda died violently and made a group of fires, right? Can Dark Souls be a big seller? โ
"Luo Bai's compelling skills are poor, I want to say that there are several games before, this guy doesn't do a good job of making games, and it's really first-class to engage in publicity.
Whether it's the first encounter with Skystar, or the later Dark Dungeon's kind of side-rubbing mod, and the appearance of the Hollow Knight at Ren's Hell Conference.
It's completely a textbook in the industry, you see that Wanda has not been announced, isn't this overturning?
In this era of capital flow, publicity and distribution are done well, and a piece of can take off. โ
"Do you really think you're the world's biggest game manufacturer? A guy who just died violently after the game, what qualifications does he have to make such a false publicity? โ
And for this gang of people, Luo Bai's fans naturally won't endure it.
"It doesn't matter if the game sells well or not, what's your business? Shouldn't you pay attention to the quality of the game, is the game fun or not? What imbecile? โ
"You said that you had a porcelain encounter with Tianxing, this should be a rumor, you wait, the Internet police will arrive soon."
"I'm also drunk on game promotion.,Yo Yo Yo,Aren't you typing in the comment area now also promoting? What kind of double standard low energy รท รท. โ
In the first stage, the fight between black and white in the comment area was on par.
โฆโฆ
In July, I was interviewed by an excellent producer.
"Mr. Luo, what kind of game is Dark Souls?"
Looking at the microphones moving under the stage, Luo Bai smiled slightly:
"Actually, it's a game type that everyone is very familiar with, like Olympiad Day."
's fluttering words set off countless waves in the audience.
Everyone knows that the person in front of him has set off heated discussions around the world, known as the light of domestic games, and vaguely pressed on the heads of all domestic stand-alone game producers.
It is the developer of the new game genre "Oori" that has a profound impact on the subsequent development of the game!
It seems that the defeat of Wanda and the Colossus forced him to set foot in the field he is best at and find his way back!
All of a sudden, many media people in the audience have even thought of the title of their next report, which is definitely exciting!
"Mr. Luo, in other words, Dark Souls is actually a 3D Aori-like game?
Was it because of Wanda's defeat that you made this decision? โ
The reporter asked a question that seemed very sharp, but Luo Bai's expression did not fluctuate, he just smiled lightly, looking confident.
saw him calmly staring at the camera and stretched out a finger:
"First, it's not accurate to say that Dark Souls is a 3D Aori-like game, in my mind, I actually want to call it a Souls-like game!"
With that, he stretched out a second finger:
"Second, Wanda didn't lose and has met my psychological expectations for its results.
Dark Souls is an idea that has been in my head for a long time, and there is no such thing as doing this kind of subject matter for the sake of doing it. โ
Mad! It's crazy!
The game media people in the audience were shocked by Luo Bai's words.
"Olympiad Day is not accurate", "Soul-like game".
Luo Bai actually openly advertised here that he was about to create a new game genre?
This is really big news!
The microphone couldn't wait to poke into Luo Bai's mouth.
"Mr. Luo! I would like to ask, what are the characteristics of the so-called Souls-like games? โ
"Mr. Luo! What would you like to say to players who are expecting Dark Souls? โ
"Mr. Luo! Do you think Dark Souls will succeed? โ
All sorts of problems are emerging.
Faced with the question of asking about the specific content of the game, Luo Bai said that everyone should go to the game to find the answer.
In the face of the questions against the players, Luo Bai sincerely thanked him.
In the face of whether the dark souls would succeed or not, Luo Bai expressed great, even arrogant confidence.
As soon as the details of this interview were relaxed, it instantly caused an uproar in the entire gaming industry.
Without him, the news given by Luo Bai this time is too exciting!
And Gu Wu, who couldn't get hot before, and could only pretend to be dead in the end, also came to insert a lever.
What's interesting is that even if he pretended to be dead before, there were many people who paid attention to him specifically for scolding him.
If someone scolds, there will be traffic, if there is traffic, there will be attention, and if there is attention, you can bring goods and money.
scolded and scolded, I can't stand this rotten money, it's really fragrant!
And who's the hottest in the gaming world right now? Needless to say!
Without saying a word, he opened another blog post:
"With the birth of the game Ori, there is one more genre in the gaming industry, but IMHO, this genre has very little influence on the industry.
The main reason for this is that there are too many restrictions on Ori, and it is rigidly limited to the field of 2D, and it is difficult to make any progress in the field of 3D.
Why?
We all know that this type of game can become popular, and its unique box garden map design is actually inseparable, and if you want to make a map structure like the box garden world in the 3D world, the difficulty is not comparable to 2D games at all.
As far as I know, there are many gold medal map designers from major game manufacturers in the industry who have failed in this problem.
Starting from the left side of a map and eventually returning to the right side is actually not a difficult problem, it is nothing more than to make a connected ring design.
But in the middle of the path, you have to make sure that the map can lead to the right, and make sure that the middle section of the road itself is exciting, twisty and interesting enough.
This is not difficult to do in a 2D game, but in a 3D game, it is impossible to design a map as exciting as 2D when there are ups and downs.
Stairs, valleys, broken bridges, and the addition of a Z-axis, the complexity of the game has completely increased by more than one notch.
The vast majority of 3D games on the market are still linear as you can see.
Even if there are a few games that don't have a linear flow, on the map, they will definitely not be able to achieve the level of sophistication of Hakoiwa.
It's not that Luo Bai is the pioneer of the game genre of Ori, and even if Luo Bai is the author of Ori, there is no guarantee that he can beat those masters who have been specializing in this field for many years.
Didn't you see it?
The map design in Wanda and the Colossus is quite vague and uninteresting.
Therefore, the so-called 3D Aori-like and soul-like are actually just a gimmick used by Luo Bai to promote.
I'm waiting to see the show! โ
And under the comment area of Gu Wu Bowen:
"Teacher Gu said well, he is worthy of being a gold medal game producer in China, and he immediately said the pain point of the original intention.
It is a difficult and incredible thing to make a box garden design that satisfies players in the 3D field, and so many excellent map designers in this world can't do it, so why can Luo Bai do it well? โ
"Soul-like? Do you really dare to blow nonsense, your breath is so big, and you're not afraid of flashing your tongue? โ
"Luo Bai, why do you think about your wall-breaking 3D every day? Let's honestly come back and make 2D games. โ
"Wanda's own map design is specially designed to bring out the feeling of loneliness, and it can't be said that Luo didn't do it to say that he won't do it."
"It's not the same as not being able to do it and not being able to do it."
Oops, I wasn't scolded this time?
Even a few fans who speak for Chuxin seem to be very sensible.
Gu Wumei is sizable.
Who wants to be scolded without being scolded?
Watching Luo Hei engage in team building in his comment area, frantically praising himself for what he said, Gu Wu decided that he had decided to start his first heart!
In fact, it's not that Luo Bai's fans don't want to talk to Luo Bai.
It's just that this time, what Mr. Luo said was too exaggerated.
This made the fans of the original intention a little afraid to speak.
Created a new genre? Mr. Luo, it's not that we don't believe you, but can you hurry up and make the game to open the eyes of the brothers?
In the second round, with the retreat of the original fans, Luo Hei won a small victory!
โฆโฆ
In August, according to media reports, Luo Bai made a special trip to visit Mr. Miura, the author of "The Legend of Sword Wind".
And it shows that during the development of the new game Dark Souls, its art style and backstory were very inspired by "Legend of the Sword Wind".
The two sides had a cordial and friendly conversation, and when Mr. Luo proposed to obtain the authorization of Mr. Miura, the other party said that he also liked the ninth art created by Luo Bai, especially "Wanda and the Colossus", which gave him a very unforgettable experience.
He also said that the unconditional authorization of the style of the Legend of the Sword Wind would be as long as Luo Bai could create more works that everyone would like.
He also said that "the hearts and minds of artists can sense each other".
Of course, the reality is.
Miura had never heard of Luo Bai's name before, and he didn't know much about the gaming world at all.
But under Luo Bai's money-making ability, he expressed his willingness to cooperate with this propaganda.
10 million, just for a gimmick, Luo Bai can be regarded as a bloody investment this time!
That's the news that both comic book fans and game fans can see.
However, in fact, Luo Bai himself still thinks it is very worthwhile.
The sword wind legend of this world has ended, continuing the style of Miura's old thief, and the sword wind legend with a high degree of completion is over, and it is not a loss to see the ending for 10 million.
Luo Bai also bought a set of whole books to burn, and I don't know if the good brothers of the earth can receive it.
As soon as the news came out, it naturally caused an uproar in China.
"! it! it! A sword wind legend style game? Mr. Luo, do you also look at the sword wind?
I'm looking forward to it! Hurry, hurry! โ
"The thought that I can hold the Gazi Sword in my hand and split the monster in half with a single knife from head to toe is refreshing!"
In other words, Dark Souls is actually a fantasy adventure game set in the European Middle Ages, right?
It's that this game is so similar to the name of the dark dungeon, how can I vaguely feel a strong malice from Mr. Luo. โ
Luo Hei may be late, but Luo Hei is never absent!
"Laughing to death, it is estimated that it is also a game made as soon as the brain is hot.
Luo Bai don't do 3D, you really can't do it, this time it was inspired by watching the legend of the sword wind, what was the last time? A certain third-rate love? โ
"I want to run before I even learned to climb? How bad was the sales of the last Dark Dungeon?
3D mod is not as convenient as 2D, oh, this game will definitely die when it comes out, I said. โ
"On the contrary, I think this game may sell well, I have already said it, Luo รท is a publicist, he knows a chicken game?
This time, I also specially pulled a book that I didn't know about bullshit to come out and endorse it.,The publicity is full.,In the end, even if it's a piece of shit, there will definitely be gamers with abnormal brains who come out to pay.ใ โ
These รท students can see Luo Bai's fans with anger.
Many people sent screenshots to places like Ori Bar, Dungeon Bar, Hollow Bar, Penguin Colony, etc., wanting to get support.
For example, "mirror three-life push".
Salted fish player exchange group.
Mirror Sansheng pushed: "I'm so angry!" These รท students! Boys, follow me to the battle! โ
Old Lu: "What are you worrying about?" Let them scold, the game hasn't come out yet, what are you anxious about. โ
Mirror Sansheng pushed: "I can't bear it!" One punch to blow up the blue star! โ
Er Xiao: "What do you have to say to Jun Heizi, he can tell that the games that Mr. Luo made before are all rubbish, so you don't need to say much about what this person is, right?"
I haven't played the game before, and it's not even a cloud, so let's be sensible and don't mix it up. โ
Zhuge Goudan: "It's true, Wanda is a good game, and I'm also angry enough by those gangsters, but the most important thing now is to look forward to Mr. Luo's new 3D game."
And buy it as soon as it comes out! Didn't you see that my mirror hasn't been out of DLC recently? โ
Yujiang sang late: "Mr. Luo's ambition this time is not small, the last time he made such a big move, I remember the last time, the quality of the game of Dark Souls will definitely shock the industry!" โ
Dark Souls pushed all his life: "Indeed, indeed, I'm not angry, Luo always hurry up and get out of Dark Souls!" I'm going to play hard!
Change your name to Mingzhi! I'll change back when Dark Souls comes out! โ
Seeing that the name of this forced person had been changed, Lao Lu's hearts jumped wildly.
Good guy, this guy is really determined enough.
And this scene is obviously also happening in the original fan base of Tieba and Penguin.
Who cares about those sunspots? We're going to see Dark Souls!
In the third round, with the help of the original fans, Luo Hei won a big victory!
Seriously, fans of Chuxin don't care about these guys anymore.
Anyway, these people will go back and forth with Wanda to talk about things, but actually.
Is Wanda's sales really that bad?
Although the sales volume is still only about 600,000 so far, with the emergence of various video explanations and strategies, more and more players who are interested in Wanda have gradually begun to enter the pit, and the sales have been steadily improving.
And the praise from the mainstream gaming media in the market, as well as the 9.0 score given by IGN, show no doubt that this is indeed a good game.
Did Chuxin really lose so badly this time?
The compensation is indeed a little loss, but it is not accurate to say that it hurts the muscles and bones.
At least the development of all the black souls was smoothly completed, and there was no problem at all.
Is Luo Bai really notorious this time?
Although the sunspots are very reluctant to admit it, there is no doubt that the current name of the light of domestic games is still firmly installed on Luo Bai's head, the head of the original heart.
So why is there still so much ridicule on the Internet at present?
The main reason is also that the more excellent and extreme the game, the easier it is to cultivate a group of loyal fans.
In fact, the evaluation of Luo Bai and the original intention is still relatively rational when he is in Aori.
Although it is a one-sided compliment, this kind of praise generally only involves the game, not the original intention and Luo Bai himself.
As for the previous mirror...... Who let Lo live or die without the DLC?
Fans can't wait to eat raw meat!
After arriving at the dark dungeon and Hollow Knight in the back, with the continuous output of excellent games, there will definitely be more and more "filial sons".
It's impossible to guarantee that every gamer will be sane, even though sane gamers are the vast majority.
But sensible gamers generally don't speak.,You're out of the game, we'll buy it.,We enjoy the game with peace of mind.,As for the evaluation of the outside world, it has nothing to do with me.ใ
Share it with your friends and loved ones, and at most when someone on the game discussion platform says that the game is short, share it.
Irrational players will go all over the place.
Casually see a game.,I like to brush the one I like at the bottom.,When others say that this game really has shortcomings.,Not only do you not admit it.,But you also have to insist that you don't understand.ใ
It's no wonder that passers-by can have a high opinion of the game, the game's developer, and the fan base.
But in fact, the combat effectiveness of these fans is actually the strongest, and the cohesion and organization are not comparable to passers-by and fans at all.
So in the frontal battlefield, you can basically see the NC powder bar rational powder fight retreating.
Why was Wanda ridiculed by the group?
Luo someone is not angry!
Directly before Wanda was officially released, he publicly apologized and blocked the movement of all NC fans.
The ministers are about to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first?
Many NC fans have reversed two levels and directly become Luo Hei, and now the voice of the black heart on the Internet is so loud to a large extent also due to their contributions.
Of course, this is definitely good for the good voices within the fan base.
It's hard for fans to help Luo speak, and there are indeed a group of professional sunspots and some game companies behind the scenes, making it seem like the original intention has fallen.
In fact, it's not that serious at all.
Passers-by and Luobai fans are not involved in this matter, and everyone is looking forward to what kind of trick this forced thing called "Big Sushi" can do.
The 3D class of O'Ri, thinking about it makes their expectations bad.
As for someone named Gu Wu, who are you?
Are you the founder of Ori? Others can't do it in 3D, and Luo can't do it? Can you kneel down and kowtow to your brothers?
No?
Can't you still roll?
As a result, some game companies are frantically investing money to buy water armies behind their backs, in a vain attempt to provoke a big scuffle between passers-by fans and beginner fans.
As a result, the same water army company beat itself in the comment area.
may have just been a netizen who was just Kwa Luo Bai and Hei Luo Bai was separated by a desk in reality.
What about PR firms?
Such a good money is not made in vain!
No one mentioned this to their bosses, tacitly you scolded me and I scolded you, and the money arrived in an uproar.
It feels like just one word.
Beauty!
Slowly, I watched the popularity of topics related to "Dark Souls", "Chuxin", "Luobai" and so on getting lower and lower.
The game companies that are buying the trolls behind their backs can't sit still.
Why are all these nonsense going over and over? Familiar with words? You forced PR companies to cheat on Lao Tzu's money, right?
As soon as the investment of money here stops, the navy will naturally not give you a day job.
Sure enough, it was only after the tide that I knew who was swimming naked.
In just a short period of time, a large number of original fans, including Lao Lu, discovered one thing.
The gang of people who were still boiling and talking about Wanda all day long have disappeared a lot.
The remaining small number of die-hard sunspots, although they are very strong in combat, are outnumbered and soon drowned under the siege of Chuxin fans.
"Le, what about people? Why are there only two big cats and kittens? โ
"Weak, please, you're weak."
Online discussions about Dark Souls are becoming more and more normal, and speculation about the information the game has given so far is also mixed.
And as the turmoil subsided, in September of 33, Chuxin finally released the first PV of Dark Souls under the watchful eye of all people.
The story of Dark Souls has also unlocked a corner of its mystery to all players who are looking forward to it.
